Benjamin Arthur Borowsky passed away peacefully on August 19, 2024, at the age of 90.

Beloved husband of 67 years to Radine; cherished father and father-in-law of Steven (Iris), Larry (Heidi), and Mark (Leila); adoring grandfather of Hannah (Chris), Naomi, Jonathan, Daniel, Samuel, and Cate; loving brother to (late) Colman, Fruma, and Les; supportive uncle, great-uncle, cousin, and friend.

Ben was a dedicated physician and compassionate caregiver to innumerable patients over many decades. He practiced medicine with a human touch and deeply reassuring manner, combining medical skill with personal warmth and integrity that engendered great trust. Ben loved teaching, and he served as a mentor and role model to young doctors throughout his career. He also loved learning, and he remained an enthusiastic student of science, medicine, history, and other subjects long after he retired from active practice.

In his personal life, Ben placed devotion to family above all. He shared everything with his life partner, Radine, especially their mutual enjoyment of music, travel, the arts, and nature. With his sons, Ben found tremendous pleasure in sports (especially Cardinals baseball), bicycling, and the great outdoors. He committed time and energy to community programs involving education, social justice, the advancement of science, and other causes.
